I was browsing some of the more interesting Japenese Mac sites (there are so many...) and I came across this one. It's called "Room 475", and of course features, among other macs, an LC 475. There's lot of great low-angle shots of the Macs (I especially like the pic of the Q700) in his collection, including a IIcx with a Quadra 800's mobo (o'clocked to 44MHz!) and a blue hard-drive activity LED, and don't miss the clever LC 630 powered by a 240MHz G3 card! There's also something labelled "Public Chapter Special" that features the beginnings of some kind of hack that was apparently designed by a child, but still looks pretty neat.

You can Babelfish it if you, but it still won't make a lot of sense. Just enjoy the pics, mostly!

You can also link to "Club 475" from the main page, which has a list of what appear to be other 475 owners that have hacked and modified theirs. Some examples are a 475 using a 575 as a monitor and quite a few that seem to be successfully using 64MB 72-pin RAM SIMMs (which gives me hope of getting one off eBay and actually having it work).

Oooooooh. Those are probably the nicest piccies of old Macs i've seen in ages...the way that the Q700 piccie was taken seems to make it look quite a powerful beast.

Yeah, it's my favorite too! If only they weren't so small...
